Application fees
- The school does not publish a fixed application or registration fee amount in its public materials; a specific one‑time application/registration fee (and whether it is refundable) is provided to parents as part of the admissions/fee packet on request.
Tuition fees (by year group and per term)
- A detailed tuition schedule broken down by grade/year and by term is not published publicly; tuition amounts vary by year group and are issued to families in a formal fee schedule at the point of application or offer. Parents receive full fee figures for each grade level and the term/annual breakdown when the school issues the admissions/fee information.
Billing schedule and payment terms
- The school issues a formal billing schedule with payment deadlines and payment terms to enrolled families; specific term dates, instalment options, and late‑payment penalties are provided on the school invoice/fee document rather than in a public fee table.
Boarding fees (if applicable)
- The International American School of Alexandria operates as a day school; boarding accommodation and boarding fees are not offered as part of the school's provision.
Other costs and typical additional fees
- The school charges additional costs beyond tuition; common items included in the school's additional‑fee category are:
- Transportation (school bus) fees
- Uniforms and uniform replacement costs
- Textbooks and consumable learning materials
- Assessment/examination fees and standardized testing charges
- Extracurricular activities, trips and sports program fees (local and international trips may be charged separately)
- Medical/insurance fees where applicable
- Registration/seat confirmation deposits where required by admissions
Exact amounts for these items are not published in a public fee table and are provided in the school's detailed fee schedule for the relevant academic year.
Refund information
- The school's specific refund policy (for application fees, seat deposits, term tuition on withdrawal, etc.) is not published as a public, line‑by‑line table; refund rules and conditions are included in the school's admission/finance terms that are supplied to parents at registration.
Fee payment options
- The school supplies accepted payment methods and instructions on its invoices and finance paperwork. Specific payment channels (for example: bank transfer, card payment, in‑person payment) and any processing fees are stated on the school's fee invoice or confirmation documents provided to families.
Brief summary of findings and limitations
- A publicly published, grade‑by‑grade tuition table and per‑term numerical fee schedule for the 2026/27 (or 2025/26) academic year was not available in the school's publicly visible materials; the school's FAQ indicates that complete tuition and additional fees by grade are issued directly to parents on request. Because the school issues exact figures to families via its admissions/finance documents rather than in a public fee table, per‑term and per‑grade numeric amounts cannot be provided here.
The International American School of Alexandria (IAS) offers Kindergarten through Grade 12 on an American curriculum in English, with native-speaker staff guiding the language arts program. Classical Arabic is taught as a native language, alongside formal Egyptian National Studies, including Egyptian History, Religion, and Arabic. ESL supports students who need English language development, while French begins in Grade 1 and Spanish is offered in Grade 9. Founded by Mr. and Mrs. Ashraf Wahby, IAS started as a hopeful vision for Egypt's children and grew from a nursery into a K–12 community. In the mid-2000s land was acquired, and by 2006 the school expanded to Grades 1–6, with facility additions. Plans for a swimming pool, indoor cafeteria, gymnasium, and auditorium were complemented by new classrooms, science labs, and a library. The school emphasizes leadership, service, and character through its Honor System and co-curricular offerings, including academic, cultural, and language activities.
